Hi Guys
What is considered to be the best dish for Cyprus Im not talking about size but make and model. Who are considered to be the best manufacturers and are they worth it?
I have seen the Astra 2D website and they state a 3.05m 1 piece aluminium AMS Canada dish with Invacom LNB gives perfect reception from 7:00 to 21:00 and some breaking but still watchable from 21:00 to 22:00 and from 22:00 to 03:00 also OK. Not sure if there has been a typing error though as the heading has "3.5m solid aluminium dish AMS Cananda" but in the write up it says "3.05m solid 1 pce alum. dish AMS Cananda"
I was under the impression after 2.7m you cannot get 1 piece dishs?
My current dish is a 2.7m with the quad Invacom and a Pace 2600. There are nights when my and BBC and ITV (tyne tees) are perfect and I mean perfect. Other nights the BBC is there but not watchable while the ITV is watchable but breaks ups.
I know my dish definately needs to be realigned and I am going to add the adjustable feedhorn, if this does not help improve my reception, I will definately consider going bigger, this is why I ask which dish is best.
I saw the thread on the Jonsa dishs and the installer who is checking my set-up will probably be supplying one of those as he is the rep for big4tv. They seemed to get a good review in the thread.
I am opposite the beach in Limassol along the road that runs parallel to the beachfront just abit further down from the TGI if that helps.
Some advice would be greatly appreciated
